Women have been ‘baby-trapping’ men by getting pregnant without their consent – either for marriage, money, or to become a mother – for decades. But in this internet era, the game has changed. Currently, as we look at news headlines, we see that there has been a recent rash of cases around the world. Relationships have problems occasionally, and rather than sitting down and talking about things and working through issues together; some women devise a more devious plan. Assuming that a baby will make your man stay is a foolish thought.
